CISSP Flashcard FAQ:
Is this deck updated for the current CISSP exam?
Yes, my CISSP Flashcards were made for the current (2024) CISSP exam. The next expected CISSP exam update is in 2027, at that time I will update the Flashcards.
How many Flashcards are there?
Just over 2,800 Flashcards in total, covering all 8 CISSP domains.
With both short and detailed explanations for each card, and direct links to my lectures and Wikipedia where appropriate for a deeper look at the topic.
How are your CISSP Flashcards different?
They are different in many ways:
- Every card includes two levels of explanation, short and detailed explanations for each card.
- Direct links to my lectures and Wikipedia where appropriate for a deeper look at the topic.
- Using the Brainscape platform you get:
- Spaced repetition and confidence scoring to help you retain more and study less. This isn’t a “shuffle and hope” deck — it adapts as you go.
Study from anywhere on any device at any time with the Brainscape Apps (web, Android, iOS).
Focus on your weak areas first with the confidence based algorithm.
Do short 10-term sessions or longer ones as they match your schedule.
Strengthen your long‑term memory using active recall with immediate answer reveal and self‑rating.
Track your progress instantly – Mastery %, Confidence Gained, and Cards Studied update after each round.
Keep motivation high – Instant feedback, progress meters, variable rewards, and social leaderboards.
Stay on schedule with automated study reminders.
Can I use the Flashcards on any device?
Yes, you should be able to!
Brainscape works on both your computer, tablets, and mobile devices.
There are separate (but synced) web, iOS, and Android apps – so you can study no matter where you are, waiting in line, between meetings, wherever you’ve got a spare five minutes.
Can I get your Flashcards for other certifications?!?
Short answer: Not yet.
Longer answer:
Most of the terms are completely usable for the CISM, CC, Security+, and many other Cybersecurity certifications.
We may add specific ones for the certifications mentioned above later, to get the direct relevant lecture links, but not for now.
Are the Flashcards enough on their own to pass?
Short answer; No.
Longer answer:
Flashcards are for review — they’re a great tool to reinforce what you’ve learned, but they’re not a full course. Think of this as your high-efficiency memory booster, not a complete curriculum.
